Fieldpiece Infrared Refrigerant Leak Detector DR82

The Fieldpiece DR82 Infrared Refrigerant Leak Detector is a professional HVAC-R leak detector designed to find refrigerant leaks quickly, accurately and with fewer false alarms. Using advanced infrared sensor technology, the DR82 detects refrigerant concentration changes and helps technicians pinpoint leaks across air conditioning, refrigeration and heat pump systems.

With sensitivity better than 0.03 oz/year / 1 g/year, the DR82 can detect very small leaks and is suitable for HFC, HCFC, CFC, HFO and blended refrigerants. It is also A2L compatible, making it suitable for modern low-GWP refrigerant systems. The large backlit LCD, leak rate indicator, flashing tip and audible alarm make it easy to use in both bright and low-light service environments.
